Yes the Tarrant County Sheriff's Department is over the County Jail, which is where he is currently being held. I assume he will sit there until the DA decides whether or not to prosecute the case. From what the detective who filed charges against him told me, it's up to the DA to go ahead with...
I'm not looking to get him out of this, because I know it's something that has to work itself out so to speak. I'm just trying to get an idea of what to expect to prepare myself. If a Class B Misdemeanor means confinement up to 180 days, will he serve 6 months for both charges? Or will it be a...
Since I can't afford to get him a private attorney, which is what I know he needs. Is there a way to contact the court appointed lawyer? I know most of the time they suck, and really do nothing to help the people who really need them! Do you just get whichever one they assign you, or do you have...
What exactly am I looking for. Is it one DA for each county or city? I live in Fort Worth, Texas which is in Tarrant County. Am I looking for the DA in Fort Worth, or in Tarrant County?
How do I track down who the DA is that would be handling the case. Do I let him know that he has been sitting in there for 5 days now, and that they are just now filing charges against him? Where do I begin my search to find the DA?
Spoke with the Detective who was handling the case today. He officially filed charges against him today. He says now it is up to the DA wherther or not to proceed, or drop the charges. He will be transferred back to the county jail sometime this weekend where he will wait to go to trial or be...
Finally talked to someone. All they said is that he is still being held in the Mansfield City Jail. He has 2 charges of Burglary of a Vehicle. 2 $ 5000.00 Bonds, totalling $ 10000.00. Which I can even dream about affording. But that's all I got. Is there anything in specific I need to be asking...
Any suggestions about court appointed lawyers. I would love for him to have his own private attorney, but I can't afford it. Will or could this make things worse for him? Also he keeps saying new inmates are coming in, seeing lawyers, being taken to court, and being transferred to where they...
So any idea as what to do now? Is there anything more I can do? Are there any questions he should or could be asking while he is in there? Can he find out what they claim to have against him? What evidence there is, or why he is being charge with this crime? Because it is going on the 5th day...
I believe I remember him saying something about arraignment where he was told what he was being charged with. But that was on the same day of the arrest. But he hasn't spoken with anyone since. He keeps saying that he did take something, but nowhere from where he was found and arrested. So you...
